Question

A culture started with 1,000 bacteria. After 6

Answer 1

Answer:

1,500 bacteria.

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't know what P=Aekt means but I understand the rest:

Hour 0: 1,000 bacteria

Hour 6: 1,300 bacteria

We can conclude from this evidence that it takes 6 hours to grow 300 new bacteria.

Let's use a ratio

new bacteria : hours

      300          :     6

        50          :      1

       500         :     10

So we get 500 new bacteria after 10 hours. Using our original population of 1,000 and our new added members, we get 1,500 bacteria at Hour 10.

Answer 2

Answer:

1350

Step-by-step explanation:

1000 to 1100 is an increase of 100 bacteria per 6 hours

100/6 = 16.67 bacteria per hour

16.67 * 15 hours = 250

Total bacteria should be 1100+250= 1350

hope this helps :D
